I respectfully request that you include the Dredging Coordination Improvement Act in the upcoming Water Resources Development Act for 2026.
Kevin Mullin will work to include the Dredging Coordination Improvement Act in the 2026 Water Resources Development Act.
Occurrences
The Dredging Coordination Improvement Act would streamline coordination among stakeholders, particularly between the Army Corps and local partners, prioritize dredging to facilitate commerce and navigation, and increase transparency between the federal government and ports.
Evidence
This Act may be cited as the “Dredging Coordination Improvement Act.”

Assessments
Mullin appears to have made a serious legislative effort toward the promise by introducing the Dredging Coordination Improvement Act on August 15, 2025 while serving in the House, which materially advanced the proposal in the proper federal office context. But as of June 15, 2026, the available record does not show that the act was actually included in a 2026 Water Resources Development Act or that WRDA 2026 has completed in a way that proves delivery. Because the promised outcome remains unverified rather than clearly achieved or clearly defeated, the best judgment is unresolved.
